Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 3 Expression of STAT5A is positively associated with Notch3 in breast cancer. a In TCGA (Cell 2015), the expression of STAT5A was positively associated with Notch3 in patient tissues. b Notch3 and STAT5A mRNA levels in different breast cancer cell lines. c STAT5A protein expression was positively associated with Notch3 in different breast cancer cell lines. d Overexpression of Notch3 promoted expression of STAT5A and its active form, p-STAT5, at the protein level in BT549 cells. e Overexpression of Notch3 promoted the expression of STAT5A and its active form, p-STAT5, at the protein level in MCF-7 cells. f In MCF-7 cells, knockdown of Notch3 decreased STAT5A and p-STAT5A at the protein level. g Overexpression of Notch3 increased the mRNA level of STAT5A in BT549 cells. h Overexpression of Notch3 increased STAT5A mRNA levels in MCF-7 cells. i The mRNA level of STAT5A was suppressed by siNotch3

Article Snippet: Cell lysates were collected from MCF-7 cells at 80% confluence in a 100-mm dish and incubated with anti-Notch3 antibody or normal rabbit IgG (CST 2729) as control.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 4 Notch3 directly binds to the STAT5A promoter and activates STAT5A expression. a Potential CSL binding sites of Notch3 on the STAT5A promoter, and the adjacent region, lacking Notch3 binding sites, as the negative control, and the construction strategy of luciferase reporter genes driven by wildtype and CSL-mutant STAT5A promoters. b ChIP results showing that Notch3 directly binds to the STAT5A-2/3 region on the promoter. c In MCF-7 cells, the luciferase activity of pGL3-STAT5A-pro-luc-E was suppressed by loss of Notch3 on the promoter region of STAT5A in a dose-dependent manner. d In MCF-7 cells, the luciferase activity of pGL3-STAT5A-pro-23-luc-E was suppressed by knockdown of Notch3 in a dose-dependent manner. The STAT5A promoter, lacking Notch3 binding sites, was not regulated by knockdown of Notch3. e In BT549 cells, STAT5A promoter-driven luciferase activity was activated by overexpression of Notch3 in a dose-dependent manner. f In BT549 cells, STAT5A promoter-driven luciferase activity was activated by the binding of Notch3 on the STAT5A promoter in a dose-dependent manner. The STAT5A promoter, lacking Notch3 binding sites, was not regulated by the overexpression of Notch3

Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 5 Notch3-mediated suppression of metastasis can be reversed by STAT5A siRNA in breast cancer cells and high Notch3 and STAT5A expression predicts better prognosis in patients with breast cancer. a Suppressive effect of Notch3 on wound healing was reversed by suppressing STAT5A expression in BT549 cells. b In transwell assays, Notch3-induced decreased mobility of BT549 cells was rescued by knockdown of STAT5A. c Enhancement of wound healing by siNotch3#1 was reversed by overexpression of STAT5A in MCF-7 cells. d Low expression of Notch3 predicted poor recurrence-free survival in patients with breast cancer. As well as, breast cancer patients with low STAT5A levels showed poor recurrence-free survival. e Low expression of Notch3 predicted poor overall survival in patients with breast cancer. And breast cancer patients with low STAT5A levels showed poor overall survival

Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 6 Proposed model of how Notch3 upregulate STAT5A in breast cancer. Notch3 is cleavaged twice to form N3ICD. In the cell nucleus, N3ICD forms a complex with CSL, which initiates transcription of STAT5A. Prolactin(Prl) binding to the receptor(PrlR) results in receptor dimerization and autophosphorylation of the receptor-associated JAK. Then, JAK phosphorylates the receptor, thereby creating docking sites for Src homology 2 (SH2) domain proteins, such as STAT5A. Subsequently, Jak2 phosphorylates the STAT5A to form an active dimer
